Nice setup, what tire size did you end up running? I am curious what can be run with your wheel specs as I plan on getting an M2 soon.. M3 off to new owner

Could you take close up pic of wheels from rear? Tring to see if there is much stretch using OEM tire on wider wheel.

Edit: also which vendor would you recommend to order bbs fi-r?

here you go. as for vendors, any of the forum sponsors will be good. i personally got them from my friend's shop but he's not a sponsor here so i can't post his info

Your car makes me want to get the CF roof soo much.

Thank you! Rear tire stretches more than my liking but not as bad as I expected initially.

yup. it's livable, but will definitely go wider when it's time to replace the tires.

Awesome build, car looks sick! Just a few question on suspension (since that's all I'm really planning to do), if you don't mind:

Since you installed the coils before the camber kit - was the drop too much that you felt a camber kit was necessary? Or did you want to set a more aggressive camber?

Also do you have spacers? By the pics it looks like it, but I didn't see that on your list of mods.

thanks.

i wanted more camber for track duty. no spacers with stock wheels or the bbs.

UltraMagneticAL · 12-10-2017, 07:35 PM

about two months ago i smashed my front lip

didn't want to pay $1800 for another front lip, so i ended up getting RW Carbon's version of the 3D Design. Fit and finish is on par w/ the original, but at 1/3 the cost. Also got the accompanying canards.

bobert · 12-10-2017, 09:05 PM

Nice! I really like that - beautiful wheels too (and this is coming from someone who's not really a "mod guy")!

jessetaylor1 · 12-11-2017, 09:37 AM

So beautiful! How was the install of the Awron display? And, how are you liking it, anymore photos/ videos of it?

Ymalo22 · 12-11-2017, 09:47 AM

This build is perfect!

Did you wind up changing out your tires yet? Curious to know if the new tire set up will rub with your wheels.

Reason being I'm looking at 19x9.5 ET25 Front / 19x10.5 ET32 Rear with 255/35/19 and 275/35/19.
